Any ideas, not that I am looking to sell, just curious about what people have heard/seen/sold for.

Ebay has ended auctions for bikes that have roughly 1k miles on it for about the same price as a new one. The market is flooded with the bikes and people think they are going to sell them for what they baught em' for. Good luck selling yours! (just kiddin)

This thought crossed my mind over the past couple of months. Every day you see threads about people picking up Nightsters. In a year or two, people won't be able to give them away. I love the bike but it seems everyone's bought one. The funny thing is is that I have yet to pass one on the road.

I concur. The dealer out me cant keep them in stock, yet I haven't seen one on the road yet.

Similar to newly released cars, it's going to take a few years to see a true resale value scale. So far, I've seen lightly used N's with about $1000 of accessories go for the same as a new Vivid Black. Of course, it's a seller's market now into early riding season.
